Trailer hitch
 

Does any one have information for a hitch on these new X5's. I need to tow a couple of jet skis and a boat. I am getting ready to place an order. Secondly, I like the V8 as opposed to the I6. I am moving from an Escalade and was wondering what the I6 would be like for towing power.

Towing power is 6000lbs but peopl ehave done more

Thanks. What I am looking for is any information on a hitch for the new X5. My dealer does not have any info. Is there a trim kit or cover plate to go over any cutout? Is there a knockout?

The new X5 hitch tongue is kind of J-shaped and comes from underneath the bumper. No cutout. Look for hitch in this video

Thanks for the info. Any idea on the price and I assume this is dealer installed item?

No idea on price. Dealer should know or find for you.

Thanks. The info was appreciated.

Anyone have any new info on the hitch situation? My dealer has no info. I hope there is a solution instead of actually cutting a notch in the bumper. Seems pretty short sighted not to include a hitch especially when the marketing highlights the trailer stability and anti-sway program.

Have you seen the accessory catalog?
See pic below, does not look like there is any hole in bumper.

No, I did not see it. Thanks. That's good news. The Aero kit looks awsome but, can't use it with trialer hitch. Bummer!
